Most of those lathes and the ones on ebay are all the same, just the prices are different. I purchased one from ebay for $468.99 (shipped). 7"x14" It arrived in a packing crate in one piece. I recommend watching some youtube videos about the problems and pitfalls of an ebay lathe.

That being said (on mine) I made a part for an old radio and it worked pretty well. I have also used it to cut thin walled steel pipe (I needed it to be almost perfectly straight) and it worked fine for that. Just realize these things are mean for nothing harder than mild steel and you need to work slowly and have patients when cutting steel with them. They are better suited for aluminum, and softer metals, and would work great for making jewelry.

Hey everybody I'm a clueless moron, I want to build/modify some random thing I found. I have no skills and don't know how to use google. Can someone here give me precise step by step instructions in how to do what I haven't bothered to accurately describe?

Also I don't have any tools and no mechanical aptitude.

I promise I will get mad when you all point this out to me.
